As a native inhabitant, I experienced unpleasant guest kindness. In the Estonian way, we provide morning porridge to the guests, the guest is not left unserved, and there was nothing to offer for lunch if the desire arose. A rude unsolved case, On behalf of the lady of the manor. I hope that the guests will be offered better service in the future. Greetings Talo Margo 3 months have passed, and the change has worked well. In terms of the wellbeing of the food community, the change has been positive , people travelling in our region can enjoy our beautiful nature and cultural values on a full stomach :) I am the only one who is happy about this :) Welcome to South Esonia

Saint-Émilion Old Town

Saint-Émilion is a picturesque medieval village renowned for its well-preserved architecture and vineyards. The town and surrounding vineyards was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999, owing to its long, living history of wine-making, Romanesque churches and ruins stretching all along steep and narrow streets.

An oppidum was built on the hill overlooking the present-day city in Gaulish times, before the regions was annexed by Augustus in 27 BC. The Romans planted vineyards in what was to become Saint-Émilion as early as the 2nd century. In the 4th century, the Latin poet Ausonius lauded the fruit of the bountiful vine.

Because the region was located on the route of the Camino de Santiago, many monasteries and churches were built during the Middle Ages, and in 1199, while under Plantagenet rule, the town was granted full rights.
